Need we say more? Probably, so here goes. For many marches in the downtown Springfield they begin at the municipal courthouse and finish in Park Central Square. That route, however, crossed over an existing route for a 5K run that will occur on the same day. So the organizers put their heads together and came up with a plan. Instead of releasing the route immediately we decided to ask the enthusiastic folks in the Facebook group set up for the people who wanted to support the march. Several people responded with suggestions and as it turns out, some were better than what we had come up with. The best one was submitted by Sarah.
The march participants will assemble in Jenny Lincoln park on the corner of Harrison & South streets. Around 10:30 we will travel straight up South Street for a half mile and empty into Park Central Square. A rally will then begin with community voices speaking up for the community.
